Memories and musings of a Christian mother learning something new every day. I have come to the knowledge of the saving truth of Jesus Christ, the perfect One, and thank Him for the forgiveness of my sin.

While searching online I found the Ten Commandments of Helen Steiner Rice. She is one of my favorite inspirational poets, but I had not heard of these before. I enjoyed them so much I wanted to share with you. Have a blessed day, everyone!

1. Thou shalt be happy

2. Thou shalt use thy talents to make others glad.

3. Thou shalt rise above defeat and trouble.

4. Thou shalt look upon each day as a new day.

5. Thou shalt always do thy best and leave the rest to God.

6. Thou shalt not waste thy time and energy in useless worry.

7. Thou shalt look only on the bright side of life.

8. Thou shalt not be afraid of tomorrow.

9. Thou shalt have a kind word and a kind deed for everyone.

10. Thou shalt say each morning -- I am a child of God and nothing can hurt me.

Thanks for this post! I needed it today. Go over to Sharon's (sharonsroses)post and read her entry today. God is just placing good things for me to read today, I am being blessed on a rather 'down' day.

About Me

I am very much in love with my husband of 23 years. We have three children that are about nine years apart. Each have been divinely planned by our Heavenly Father. I have come to the realization that I am not perfect and that has taken a lot of stress from me! I desire to glorify God in all that I say and do. As it is written in the scriptures, I try to acknowledge him in all my ways so that He will direct my paths.

I want to introduce you to my greatest friend.

Simple Steps To Salvation

For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten son
that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have
everlasting life. John 3:16
That if thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shall believe in thine heart that God hath raised
him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:9
If you don't know him as your personal saviour, won't you pray
this simple prayer,
Lord Jesus, I realize you are the son of God. I ask you to
forgive me of my sins and come into my heart.
It's just that simple. Believe, accept, and receive.
